British singer Raye has won the 2026 Mercury Prize for her second studio album This Music May Contain Hope, a 73-minute record that blends jazz big band, power folk, and funk influences 1. The award, voted by a music industry panel, comes with a prize of £25,000 and marks a significant moment in Raye's career following previous label-related setbacks 1.
The ambitious album demonstrates Raye's artistic range across multiple genres, with judges praising her for displaying "genuine imagination and breadth" that transcended single stylistic boundaries 1. Her single "Where Is My Husband!" from the album reached number one in the UK and number six in the United States 1.
